Chapter 1909: Refining the Dual Eyes

After a month of purification, Ye Liuyun also temporarily stopped to rest.

The people he brought from the Mortal Realm had stayed inside Xuan Kong Shi for over three hundred days, had long adapted to the Divine Realm's environment, and often went into the Space World to absorb various energies and spar with each other for practice.

However, on this Alien Battlefield, the lowest realms are Second Realm Martial Cultivators or Corpse Demons, leaving them no suitable opponents for training.

So Ye Liuyun procured some First‑Realm ferocious beasts, letting them truly battle and hone their skills in the Space World.

He also forged second‑ and third‑tier pills for refining Qi, body, and soul condensation, urging them to use the time to advance.

Afterwards, Ye Liuyun had his duplicate calmly begin the refining.

Because those two were already saturated with Buddha Light Power, sharing the same source as Ye Liuyun's own power, the initial refining proceeded very smoothly.

The duplicate did not forge a third eye, but instead refined the two eyes individually into his own pair of eyes.

Throughout the refining process, the duplicate first continuously infused Bloodline Power into the two eyes, allowing them to adapt to his aura.

When he fully refined those two eyes into his body, the area that had been the Golden Pupil now bore an additional pair of unopened dark pupils.

The original Golden Pupil's color appeared somewhat dimmer, yet looked especially deep.

Other things, after Ye Liuyun refined them, would each generate a faint link, some changes feeding back to him.

But now this pair of eyes shows absolutely no reaction.

So in the following days, the duplicate constantly used his Soul to communicate with those eyes, attempting to elicit any response.

Yet when the two eyes finally reacted, a sudden anomaly erupted.

The two eyes began merging with the Golden Pupil.

It was unclear whether the Golden Pupil was rejecting the two eyes or the eyes had not yet adapted to Ye Liuyun's aura.

At first the duplicate only felt stabbing pain in both eyes, tears streaming nonstop.

Then blood began to flow, and the duplicate's two eyes could not open at all.

Eyes are the most vulnerable part of a Martial Cultivator, so even Ye Liuyun now has no remedy.

He could only have the duplicate ingest some body‑refining pills and Healing Elixir to ease the pain.

Yet in the end, the duplicate still blacked out from the pain.

The duplicate lacks a Ten Thousand Gods Command, so cannot stay conscious.

Yet Ye Liuyun still empathized, likewise feeling the duplicate's bone‑deep stabbing sensation.

Moreover, even after the duplicate passed out, the eyes continued to writhe within.

Ye Liuyun then gave the duplicate Life Spring Water to drink, even dripping some onto the eyes, hoping for a soothing effect.

The duplicate regained consciousness briefly, only to be pained into unconsciousness again; after many such cycles, the agony began to gradually ease.

It wasn't until a month later that the pain completely vanished.

At this point, Ye Liuyun also sensed that the two eyes had merged with the Golden Pupil.

Looking at the duplicate's pupils, there was only one left.

The Golden Pupil's color returned to normal, appearing merely deeper, nothing extraordinary.

Yet what the duplicate sees through his eyes is vastly different from before.

He can easily perceive a person's Soul, but must readjust focus; otherwise he only sees them as white particulate matter, unable to discern life or death.

Moreover, the entire world appears black.

It is as if, using Primordial Spirit Secret Technique, the people appear as clusters of energy.

He now cannot distinguish people from objects; everything looks like the same substance.

Ye Liuyun retrieved the duplicate back to the Space World, letting him train to adjust his sight.

Then he realized that, aside from himself, others who look at the duplicate's eyes find them especially terrifying.

A few extra glances feel as if even the Soul is being drawn in, evoking an inexplicable dread.

It is like staring into a bottomless abyss.

The longer one watches, the more fatigued one becomes, with great consumption of Divine Soul Power.

Especially the ferocious beasts; even if the duplicate does not display his realm, a single glance at a ferocious beast will frighten it into turning and fleeing.

The duplicate returned to his own Space World, where the Demon Beasts, upon seeing his eyes, curled on the ground whimpering, daring not to look at him.

Moreover, the duplicate now sees Monster Beasts directly in their true forms.

"This shows that the two eyes have indeed been refined.

After several months of effort, they have only enhanced the eyes' function, without gaining any additional offensive ability."

Ye Liuyun and the duplicate also ponder whether insufficient time is the cause.

"Go out to fight and test it, see what effect it has!"

Ye Liuyun thought.

In the Space World, he dares not let the duplicate experiment recklessly; if that beam were to fire suddenly, it might pierce the Space World.

Conveniently, the people inside the Space World had cultivated within Xuan Kong Shi for several months, most having advanced to the Second Realm, and it was time to send them out for experience.

Ye Liuyun immediately returned to Xuan Kong Shi, having the duplicate greet Wu Yongyuan and mention the eyes' changes.

Wu Yongyuan was quite satisfied; at least Ye Liuyun's refining, though not a success, was not a failure, and it does not affect his current strength.

"Don't be impatient; perhaps after some time of adaptation, changes might still occur! At least now your eyes already look frightening! Without even engaging the opponent, they will drain their Divine Soul Power!"

Wu Yongyuan continued to comfort Ye Liuyun.

This time Ye Liuyun left the city without employing Thousand Illusion Technique, instead letting the duplicate stride out flamboyantly.

Whoever wants to follow, just go ahead.

Anyway, Wu Yongyuan had already told him not to worry about the lives of those Martial Cultivators.

Anyone who dares to scheme against him will eventually become his prey.

These people also know that Ye Liuyun possesses a Sixth Layer Vermilion Bird.

But upon reaching the Alien Battlefield, the Vermilion Bird could only exert the power of late Fifth Layer.

They were a group of late Fifth Layer Martial Cultivators, gathered together, preparing to rob Ye Liuyun.

Now everyone knows that Ye Liuyun possesses a vast amount of wealth.

There are always some who, with resources, go on adventures.

Guan Shan Yue also warned Ye Liuyun, saying he had heard that many mid-late Fifth Layer Martial Cultivators intended to join forces against him, but Ye Liuyun completely didn't care.

Lei Ming, Long Nv, and Man Shu also broke through to early Fifth Layer, which conveniently let them all get some practice.

Ye Liuyun had already left behind the weapons and armor that the other newcomers needed.

All are Fifth Rank armor and weapons; take your pick.

Ye Liuyun now lacks nothing in resources.

As soon as the Avatar left the city, it began adjusting its sight, and consequently the entire Alien Battlefield lay fully before its view, far surpassing the original Golden Pupil.

The only drawback is that it requires distinguishing life from death, which needs those Foreign Tribe and Corpse Demon to move.

However, under normal circumstances, the dead lie on the ground, making it easy to tell.

The Avatar also saw that more than thirty mid-late Fifth Layer Martial Cultivators had followed them out of the city gate, forming a semicircle to surround him.

He smiled faintly: "Those here for practice are all in place!"
